The office of Minnesota Secretary of State Steve Simon has traced the recent spread of misinformation about the state's presidential ballot to a snarky AI chatbot named Grok, which is available to premium users of the social media platform X. https://www.startribune.com/xs-ai-chatbot-grok-spread-misinformation-about-minnesotas-ballots-does-the-tech-giant-care/600385945/

Biden is nearly 83 years old.
We're gonna be lucky to live that long ourselves. He's given of himself for this country for a LONG time. He's fulfilled the role of POTUS against a non-stop onslaught of hostility while giving his all to be a good steward of our republic. He's EARNED his retirement.
Now we need to come together to defeat not just TFG, but the entirety of the fascist GOP leadership. Burn them down to ash and make them start over.

How tariffs work:
Dumbass enacts tariff because he's a dumbass.
Suppliers add full amount of tariff PLUS extra because fuck that guy.
US companies are paying tariff PLUS extra because that guy is a fucking idiot.
Consumers pay tariff PLUS extra PLUS bonus extra because that fucking guy doesn't know how the fuck tariffs work.
And fucking stupid people applaud fucking stupid guy because they think he's hurting the other guys.
FUCK ALL THIS STUPID.

Well, at least I should not have a work interruption.
Ah, the perils of being an IT professional.
At least I can enjoy leisure activities, like having video games shock me with gratuitous cut scenes.

I am convinced that the worst thing to ever happen to the IT industry was to treat marketing people as IT experts.
Security+CE Certmaster is making my brain melt with their marketing based mumbo jumbo to describe security concepts. Every single thing they say is an industry standard makes my brain itch about how poor it really is for security.
I take this as training for how NOT to do IT security, then lock my stuff down.
I don't trust polls, period.
I vote because it's my duty, and I do it not for myself but for the people who benefit from a functioning government.
So, and this is just a wild theory, is it possible all these polls showing "Biden is losing" is just a ploy to motivate the base to encourage others to vote blue?
